Ingredients
  

  • 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup warm milk
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup raisins

Instructions
 

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, yeast, and salt. Mix well.
  • Add the warm milk and melted butter to the dry ingredients. Stir until a soft dough forms.
  • Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
  • Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
  • Punch down the risen dough and roll it out into a rectangle shape on a floured surface.
  • Sprinkle the ground cinnamon evenly over the dough, followed by the raisins.
  • Starting from one end, tightly roll the dough into a log shape.
  • Place the rolled dough into a greased loaf pan and cover it with a damp cloth. Allow it to rise for another 30-45 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake the cinnamon raisin bread for approximately 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
